[quote=Anonymous]More blah blah blah from the loons who think every behavior is age-appropriate. I know many ten year olds - and was a ten year old once - and know of no incidence of stealing. Ten year olds are MORE than capable of understanding that stealing is wrong, and taking money from people hurts them. Jesus, people like you guys are the reason a woman I know thinks it's perfectly reasonable for her 7 and 9 year olds to have public tantrums - oh it's what kids do. Nope, it's what YOUR kids do because you've read one too many dopey parenting books telling you that kids are never responsible for their behavior.  OP gave her son many, many, chances to confess and guess what, real life is such that sometimes EVEN IF YOU CONFESS you still get punished. And sometimes there's no life lesson in it, you just screw up so you get your behind kicked. Happens to us all.

OP I think you've handled it well but do make sure your son knows it's the "crime" that you detest, not him. We all make mistakes, do bad things, and get punished. Life goes on.[/quote]
